The waiting game...

This will be short and sweet as there is not much else to report - at my 39 week appointment yesterday I was pleased to hear that things are progressing quite well. All the usual stats were very good (blood pressure, baby's heartbeat, etc...) and I am now 80% effaced and 2-3 centimeters dilated. I had sensed that little Stiffler had dropped even lower as the sense of carrying around a bowling ball between my legs had intensified and the doctor confirmed this - she said he/she was extremely low. I'm still not sure what any of this really means - are we talking hours? days? another week or two? Who knows. So now we wait. Although we will definitely keep up the walks in the park and trips to the gym in hopes to keep things moving along.

Friday fun - a pic of Jack and my sister.

*Also, a special hello to my cousin Ann! We love hearing from you! Thanks for all of your comments!

Thanks Les,
I lose my concentration at work and I love checking your site for what's new. I hope you keep up with the pictures after baby, too. I LOVE all the pictures of that precious JACK. Plus, it's fun to see all of you guys in those pictures, too, then I don't feel so out of touch.
LOVE TO YOU & GRANT, BABS & BO, ANGIE & JOHNNY & CREW, and OF COURSE MY FAVORITE AUNT & UNCLE. Love you all.
